Random Favorites


What might you find if you ate breakfast at my house? 
Sometimes I make puff pancakes, or sausage and potatoes, but recently this has been on my menu. 


Egg whites, served over fresh spinach with feta, balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt. 
Served with coffee and a blueberry smoothie (no sugar). 

What? You don't like vinegar on eggs? What's wrong with you? ...
I could eat this three meals a day- or egg whites with fresh salsa. (My kids will eat this too- but not everything together on the same plate)

Poor kids. 
I keep them happy with McD's apple pie pockets once a week. (Shh..!)

On the culinary / nutrition topic...
This year I canned my own tuna! 

Several ladies I know got together last month and packed jars with fresh caught tuna. We all brought our pressure canners so we could get this done as soon as possible. No one wants fish canning to be an overnight process.. It starts to make you do silly things.

Canning tuna at home might seem odd to you too, but if you have never had fresh canned tuna, it is a totally different experience than the Chicken of the Sea. I am very glad to have this on my shelf for as long as it will last. 


OK.. 
I know I have said this before; but, it is worth repeating:   
 
I ♥ FALL RUNNING. 

Really loving these cozy arm warmers. *
They are inexpensive and make your summer tops work for winter. 

Added bonus: No muffin-top on the biceps. :D  
*super gift idea!

Laugh lines.. 
Worth every laugh!

How about you, runners? 
Have any random favorites? 
Interested in coming over for a little breakfast?-- Or tuna sandwiches?

What I run, What I burn, What I eat

Random post warning!
























Also included, (but not limited to) : tuna, protein powder (plain & bulk), elk meat, venison, ham, cucumbers, apples (by the box), hummus, lots and lots of bread, peaches & pears.

I REALLY don't know why I made this post.
I am NOT a foodie. I do like to eat, though. I am an omnivore...

Milk is probably 20% of my diet. It would be interesting to see for sure. 
But I have no desire to keep track =D . 

We have two refrigerators -one is mostly for milk so we don't run out. 
(This never used to be a problem, but we have kiddos who drink it- then I started to about 2 years ago)

Oh....and I forgot popcorn!

I go into food jags (for breakfast, lunch & snacks), until I get bored or the kids start to complain. Dinner is where I serve most of the vegetables..except for the smoothies with spinach.

When I am baaaaad, and there are no more chocolate chips, I mix up cocoa powder with sugar and butter and eat it plain. Yep. 

But I put stevia in my coffee, because I don't want to run on straight sugar first thing in the morning. :)
